since the thread started by irrx, matthies and i has somehow been locked...wtf....i will post here.....

i am very saddened to report that matthies has passed away. i have no details other than a friend found him in his condo. irrx let me know yesterday.

rest in peace my friend. thanks for talking me into going to law school and moving to denver. thanks for getting me drunk as *&^% the weekend after my 27 year marriage ended. thanks for all the lulz we have shared here...terrible peoples club...german porn...and all the other comments that made me laugh. you were the first of my friends i came out to, and while you gave me the expected *&^% about it, i always knew you were on my side.
